(VIDEO) 4th Smallest Baby in the World Born at 24 Weeks – Circle of Moms

Isaac and Molly were born at 24 weeks 20 years ago. It’s still an amazing feat that they survived. At 1 pound 8.5 ounces and 1 pound 10 ounces respectively, they were actually pretty good size for 24-weekers. We were happy to not set any records for “world’s smallest baby” when every gram counted.

Here is a video about baby Kenna, born January 9, 2012—the fourth smallest baby in the world at just 9 ounces. She’s now a whopping 3 pounds 8 ounces and we wish her an her family only the best on the long road of preemiehood.

Look How We’ve Grown
